Data won't display on tabbed subform

[CW]

I have a Main page with several tabs for various aspects of our shipping jobs.
I'm trying to create a further one for invoicing.
I have a Debtors table and I created a form that displays the debtor name
and address and account no etc. The debtor can be selected by means of a
combo, and when the required record is found, all the fields are populated,
fine.
Next I created the new tab control and added the above-mentioned form onto
it as a subform. This will form the top section of the invoice.
However, when I use the combo on the subform, all it does is to display the
debtor names, and doesn't populate the address fields etc when a name is
selected.
It works fine on the form as a standalone form, but not when it is placed on
a tab as a subform, which is where I need to use it.
What am I missing??
Thanks
CW

What you need to do is to change the syntax of how you are populating the
fields. Here's a couple of good links on how to refer to subforms:
